34 [M4F] Happy Mother’s Day to the Woman Doing It All Alone

Maybe posted the photos. Maybe he bought flowers on the way home. Told everyone what an amazing wife and mother you are.

But right now? You’re exhausted, overstimulated, and lonely beside someone who stopped really seeing you a long time ago.

The marriage you wanted wasn’t supposed to feel like logistics and carpools. You wanted stolen kisses in the kitchen. Late-night talks after the kids were asleep. Someone who still reached for your hand in public, who looked at you like his favorite person instead of another responsibility to manage.

You wanted to feel chosen.

I think there are still women out there who want that kind of connection. Softness. Attention. Desire. Passion. Appreciation. Fire. Someone to check in during the day just because they were thinking about you. Someone who notices when your voice sounds tired. Someone who remembers how you take your coffee and how you like to be kissed.

I’m a married dad, tall, caring, emotionally available and conventionally attractive, and looking for something meaningful and lasting. Not drama. Not games. Just two people giving each other the warmth, excitement, affection, and intimacy they’ve been missing for far too long.

Maybe Mother’s Day shouldn’t just be about celebrating everything you give everyone else.

Maybe it’s time someone gave something back to you.
